Hello Kids Church Community! 

It’s just about time for Kids Church to kick off for the year! I'm really excited at all we have planned! It all begins on Sunday, September 7.

This year we’re going to continue using the Illustrated Ministries curriculum, which is a progressive Christian curriculum. We are also going to do a six-week exploration into The Lord’s Prayer: how we pray, why we pray, who we pray to. The Heifer and Advent traditions we engage in yearly will continue. And as always, if your youth needs a Bible, please reach out to Rev. Beth and she will schedule a day for your youth to be presented with a Spark Bible in worship.

Our weekly schedule will loosely run like this:
- After we leave the sanctuary, we gather in the Kids Church room and settle in.
- We share in creating our worship space together. Youth are invited to bring things from home to place on the altar OR choose one of the preexisting items from the basket OR write words/draw pictures that represent their life.
- A volunteer youth leads us in prayer either in their own words or from the prayer box.
- Check-in: highs and lows (one of the most important parts of who we are as a Christian Community) and snack (peanut-free with a gluten-free option)
- Work on the lesson for the day
- Cleanup / collect personal items from altar

The Kids Church experience is important for helping children and youth understand not only what it means to be a person of faith, but a member of our community. Fostering the youth of our church in an inclusive and biblical story-based environment is vital for their spiritual development. We’ve included here a Kids Church schedule for September–December (see below).

I’m looking forward to another great year! See you on Sunday, September 7!

Your Kids Church Director,

Children and youth start out in the sanctuary with everybody else for the start of worship at 10am. Following the moment for all ages, they are dismissed to Kids Church with their leaders.

All children are welcome to attend - whether a regular attendee, an occasional attendee, or if they're just visiting.
